ORDER GRANTING
MOTION FOR EXTENSION OF TIME
(ECF NO. 115)

WILLIAM GITTERE, et al.,
Respondents.

In this capital habeas corpus action, the respondents were due to file a renewed

13

motion to dismiss by April 1, 2021. See Order entered March 2, 2021 (ECF No. 114).

14

On April 1, 2021, Respondents filed a motion for extension of time (ECF No. 115),

15

requesting an extension of 21 days, to April 22, 2021, to file their motion. Respondents’

16

counsel states that the extension of time is necessary because of his obligations in

17

other cases and time away from his office. This would be the first extension of this

18

deadline. The petitioner does not oppose the motion for extension of time.

19

The Court finds that Respondents’ motion for extension of time is made in good

20

faith and not solely for the purpose of delay, and that there is good cause for the

21

extension of time requested.
